Last night I went to bed at 10pm, got up twice during the night, finally waking at 5:45 (immediately got a cramp in my left calf) and getting up at 6:15. The street is wet so we obviously had some rain overnight.

The three bananas I bought yesterday are still too green to eat. They should be ready tomorrow.

Annie James, the bathing beauty:

The plan for today is: Teresa will go to her 9am gym class in Mayorca, we’ll meet at Olivia’s at 12:30 for lunch, we’ll pick up MT and go to San Fernando Plaza where I’ll make the downpayment on her hearing aids, we’ll walk a couple blocks away to Torre Intermedica on Calle 7 so I can make an appointment with the ophthalmologist Catalina Montoya for a routine inspection.

Work continues on the back sidewalk. Those “blocks” you see are preformed concrete for use as curbs.

At 8:30 I found Smartfit busier than usual but it thinned out a little after 9am. I completed my usual workout but had to change the order quite a bit.

I had a latte in Ganso y Castor for about an hour. Teresa texted me her gym class was cancelled and could I pick up milk because we’ll be having lunch at home.

The new plan is to pick up MT and take her to San Fernando Plaza and pick up our original plan from there. But then at 1:30 a rainstorm started.

I finished the last of the oranges I had bought in Exito; tomorrow the bananas should be ripe enough to eat.

The rain stopped then started again.

Teresa finally left for her purse lesson at 3:15.

I checked flights and I should have booked last week when there was more availability. I’m wondering if that will improve if I wait a bit?

I met Teresa at 5pm at Eduardo Madrid and we shared a slice of carrot cake and we each had a latte. for 32,200 pesos.

I watched another episode of 1923, watched most of The Chris Hayes Show, then time for some reading.

I finished James Patterson’s Roses are Red (Alex Cross #6) on my Kindle.
